10 players top Premier League clubs can sign to catch up with Manchester City

#3 Wilfried Zaha

Zaha has been Palace's best player and rightly deserves a big move

If for nothing else, Wilfried Zaha will always be known as Sir Alex Ferguson's last signing as Manchester United's manager. The Scotsman signed the then young unproven winger as a gift for his successor. The world was excited to see the exciting young winger. But the fall from the top couldn't have been more brutal.

Unable to prove his worth at United, Zaha soon returned to his home club. With question marks over his attitude, it seemed that Zaha will go down in history as a talented player who never fulfilled his potential.

But since the previous season, Zaha has matured into Palace's best player and one of the most exciting wingers in the league. Blessed with trickery, pace and an eye for a pass, the winger is comfortable on either wing and relishes every opportunity he gets to take on his opponents. Zaha surely has the talent to take his game to the next level if given the chance.

Only 25 years old, the winger will warrant a high fee but that should not be an issue for any of the big five. Zaha can provide an extra pizzazz to any side he will join and surely it won't be long before the Englishman is again given a chance to battle out at the top rather than fight for survival at the bottom.

The following clubs should look to sign the player

Chelsea - Zaha can be the perfect partner in crime for Hazard. A lack of consistent support up front has been a bane for Conte this season. Zaha and Hazard have a lot of similar attributes.

With Fabregas behind them and Morata up front, the duo can form a lethal partnership for Chelsea. Chelsea's alarming performance against Norwich City could be the signal that leads to the management finally realizing that they have to spend money this month to stay in the top four.

Manchester United - Mourinho wants an additional winger. The prospect of returning to United will be exciting for the Englishman. Zaha has finally matured into the player that Manchester United had hoped he would become.

Arsenal: With Sanchez almost out of the door and owing to the uncertainty surrounding Ozil, Wenger should snap up the Palace winger. Arsenal's collapse against the Cherries showed the lack of depth the club has. Zaha is adept at quick and short passing and if Ozil stays, his partnership with the German and a revived Wilshere can be an exciting one.
